A total of five Baseball Bureau cards from members of the 1919 World Champion Cincinnati Reds, who benefited from the malfeasance of the notorious Chicago "Black Sox." The collection includes: Greasy Neale, Heine Groh, Billy Zitzmann, Jimmy Smith, and Larry Kopf. Neale, Zitzmann, and Kopf signed their card and hand wrote information on the front and back, while Groh and Smith hand wrote info on the front or back. The information included address, age, date of birth, and even team history. Each card is dated from either 1913, 1915, 1916, or 1924. A great memorial of the forgotten champions not long past the 100th Anniversary of the Black Sox World Series scandal.
